Q: My 3 year old kid is taking 2-3 ice creams daily. Can you kindly tell me what will be the effect on his health if he continues this because as a parent I want to know the disadvantages of this?
A:If he wants to consume 2-3 cups of ice cream/day, I will advice you to give him home made ice creams with different favours like mango, banana etc, commercial ice creams have preservatives with artificial flavours, which can harm the system in the long run. So this way you can make him continue his liking.
